Our speaker will be Jim Gallogly,
CEO of LyondellBasell, one of the world’s largest chemical manufacturing and refining companies. LyondellBasell operates from 58 manufacturing sites in 18 different countries, with annual revenues of $42 billion. Prior to joining LyondellBasell, Gallogly served as executive vice president of Exploration & Production for ConocoPhillips. He was named to that position in 2008 after serving as executive vice president of Refining, Marketing & Transportation for ConocoPhillips since 2006. Gallogly joined Chevron Phillips Chemical as president and chief executive officer in 2000.

Gallogly joined Phillips in 1980 and held various roles in exploration and production, legal and finance in the early portion of his career, including international assignments.
Gallogly will be speaking on “Emergence,” the story of how ConocoPhillips merged into a single company and how LyondellBasell emerged from bankruptcy. He had leadership roles in each company as they emerged from their previous existences into new multi-national corporations. Gallogly is a graduate of the University of Colorado, and has been a long-time supporter of CU and our College of Engineering and Applied Science, where he has served on the Engineering Advisory Council for a number of years.
